Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue considers research or review manuscripts with a global impact on some of the dimensions of forest wildlife conservation (biological, social, ethical, or economic ones, among others). Knowledge of the biodiversity of wildlife is important to understand the dynamics of forest ecosystems; new approaches and precise tools are used for this scientific task. There are still some explored places on the planet, and their study and analysis will help to understand the biodiversity of wildlife. We will disseminate global impact studies with multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches to the monitoring, analysis, and conservation of forest wildlife biodiversity. Multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary manuscripts focused on forest wildlife biodiversity and its conservation that provide practical tools can be received. This Special Issue will include manuscripts that analyze the effect of anthropic activities on the temporal and/or spatial patterns of forest ecosystems’ richness, diversity, structure, and functions. Additionally, these manuscripts may propose monitoring, analysis, actions and strategies to prevent, conserve, and/or restore any of the wildlife biodiversity. They may include the effect of habitat loss or fragmentation, human infrastructure, invasive species, climate change, or the role of protected areas.
